LOL, I just saw that. Just as a side note, this attribute has to be put into the CA running your custom code. Setting it on the "Set" CA (ex. "SetDropDatabaseCustomActionData") does absolutely nothing.

Subject: [WiX-users] Hiding CustomActionData values in MSI logs Hello all, I have several deferred CAs in my application and I'm using the CustomActionData to pass in several properties into them. However I am seeing the following in my MSI logs (asterisks added where usernames and passwords exposed for corporate security by hand), obviously I want parts of it hidden in the MSI logs for security puposes for our customers: MSI (s) (8C:BC) [13:15:51:279]: Executing op: ActionStart(Name=EQDropDatabase,,) Action 13:15:51: EQDropDatabase. MSI (s) (8C:BC) [13:15:51:281]: Executing op: CustomActionSchedule(Action=EQDropDatabase,ActionType=1025,Source=BinaryData,Target=DropDatabase,CustomActionData=RUNTIME_DATABASE_LOGON_TYPE=WinAuth|SERVICE_USERNAME=MY_DOMAIN\me|SERVICE_PASSWORD=MyPassword12##34|ODBC_CONNECTION_STRING=Driver={SQL
